[Intro 1]
[G][D][C][D]
[G][D][C][D]

[Verse 1]
Well he [G]was fueled by a [D]lack
Drew inspi[C]ration from a [D]need
So ma[G]ny problems to [D]crack
[C]And mouths to fee[D]d
Croo[G]ked was the [D]path
And [C]brazen was the [D]walk
A cocky [G]swagger, up the ladder
And could he [C]ever [F]talk

[Chorus 1]
The [G]last hurrah?
[Am]Nah! I'd do it a[Bm]gain[Am]
The [G]Rascal King be[Am]hind the bars
Or the [Bm]one in front of t[C]hem
The [G]last hurrah?
[Am]Nah! I'd do it a[Bm]gain[Am]
The [G]Rascal King be[Am]hind the bars
Or the [Bm]one in front of t[C]hem

[Verse 2]
[G]The love of God[D]
And [C]constant contra[D]dictions
With just a [G]smile, wink or [D]nod
What's [C]stranger, fact or [D]fiction?
And never [G]ceasing to a[D]maze
On a [C]regular [D]basis
First [G]hand into his pocket
Or first [C]fist into the fa[F]ces

[Chorus 2]
And It's the [G]last hurrah?
[Am]Nah! I'd do it a[Bm]gain[Am]
The [G]Rascal King be[Am]hind the bars
Or the [Bm]one in front of t[C]hem
The [G]last hurrah?
[Am]Nah! I'd do it a[Bm]gain[Am]
The [G]Rascal King be[Am]hind the bars
Or the [Bm]one in front of t[C]hem

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][C][D]
[G][D][C][D]
[G][D][Am][D]
[G][D][C][F]

[Verse 3]
[G]A legendary cha[D]racter
When? [C]Only then
Where? [D]Only there
[G]A hero or a hoo[D]ligan?
Well, [C]that part's never [D]clear
[G]Pride or shame, it's all[D] the same
Who's [C]innocent and [D]who's to blame?
[G]Politics or jus[D]t a game?
Well [C]in the end they knew his name

[Chorus 3]
The [G]last hurrah?
[Am]Nah! I'd do it a[Bm]gain[Am]
The [G]Rascal King be[Am]hind the bars
Or the [Bm]one in front of t[C]hem
The [G]last hurrah?
[Am]Nah! I'd do it a[Bm]gain[Am]
The [G]Rascal King be[Am]hind the bars
Or the [Bm]one in front of t[F]hem[G]
